Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: El acto de escribir es un poderoso instrumento de reflexión. Es algo que exige mucho, pero que también da mucho a cambio. La escritura académica es un ejercicio continuo de desvelarse, de descubrirse, de sorprenderse, de comprometerse; es escribir, reescribir, elaborar, reelaborar, esbozar, corregir, autocorregir, anotar, leer, releer, hacer, rehacer. El objetivo de este libro es formar a los estudiantes, para que aprendan a escribir y disfruten haciéndolo, y esto solo se consigue escribiendo y recibiendo un feedback permanente por parte de los formadores. Orientar el proceso de composición y dialogar sobre el trabajo de los estudiantes debería ser el método básico de instrucción. Además, es también clave leer lo que escriben los colegas, explicar las impresiones personales que causan estos textos y escuchar las opiniones de otros sobre los propios textos. El libro ofrece pautas para favorecer la escritura de los estudiantes en la enseñanza superior y describe didáctica y pormenorizadamente el mejor modo de redactar TFG, TFM, Tesis Doctorales, trabajos para revistas profesionales, etc. Además añade datos interesantes sobre cómo conciben estos grandes géneros textuales países como Argentina, Chile, Brasil, Colombia y Uruguay.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ¿Qué es una reseña o una monografía? ¿Cómo tengo que preparar una exposición? ¿Qué argumentos utilizo en un examen o en el trabajo de una asignatura? ¿Cuándo hay que escribir coma o corchete? Todas estas son preguntas frecuentes de los estudiantes universitarios. Sin duda, escribir en la universidad es un reto al que han de enfrentarse. Y esto es así porque la comunidad académica tiene sus propias formas de decir, y los estudiantes han de familiarizarse con ellas. Además, la escritura tiene una importante función epistémica. Escribir es tomar continuamente decisiones y, a través de ese proceso de reflexión, la escritura contribuye al aprendizaje. La finalidad de este libro es familiarizar al estudiante de grado, y también de posgrado, con aspectos fundamentales de la escritura académica. El fin último es contribuir al desarrollo de su competencia comunicativa y, en concreto, de las destrezas de expresión escrita. El texto está dividido en cinco capítulos. El primero tiene como objetivo concienciar al estudiante sobre la importancia de esta tarea. El segundo se centra en la corrección idiomática y atiende a la acentuación, la ortografía, la puntuación y a algunos errores gramaticales frecuentes. El tercer capítulo presenta algunos de los géneros discursivos más frecuentes en la universidad: la reseña, el resumen, la monografía o el examen escrito. Por último, los capítulos 4 y 5 ofrecen nociones para la escritura de textos expositivos y argumentativos. A lo largo de los capítulos, salvo el primero, se alterna la teoría con la práctica a través de ejemplos de diferentes tipos de textos y actividades.

Download or read book Resolviendo el Problema de Escribir en la Universidad Construcci n de Textos Acad micos en Educaci n Superior written by Marisol Rey Castillo and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2013-05-27 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mis años de docencia universitaria me han dejado muchas enseñanzas. Quizás las más valiosas sean las que tienen alguna relación con las necesidades prácticas cotidianas con las que los estudiantes tienen que batallar en el aprendizaje y la producción de conocimientos. Si se piensa detenidamente, este problema de la escritura se convierte en cuatro problemas. El primero tiene que ver con las ideas que se quieren expresar y el modo en cómo se deben ordenar al interior de un texto para que sea coherente. El segundo está relacionado con los tipos de textos que se producirán y los parámetros básicos de éstos. El tercero se liga al conflicto de la redacción y la ortografía, asunto que cuesta mucho trabajo entre los jóvenes. Y el último se relaciona con el difícil aspecto de normas de presentación, citación y referencia bibliográfica, también muy equívoco entre los estudiantes. Este trabajo tiene dos finalidades. La primera de ellas es crear conciencia en el lector de todo lo que representa el proceso de escritura, para que se quite la "telaraña" de que escribir es poner algunas vocales y consonantes unas con otras, y que se dé cuenta de que tras un texto bien escrito hay varios pasos ordenados, todos con una sola finalidad. La segunda es brindar algunas herramientas prácticas para acabar con los diferentes problemas que se presentan al momento de escribir.

Download or read book Teaching Academic Writing written by Caroline Coffin and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2005-07-26 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Student academic writing is at the heart of teaching and learning in higher education. Students are assessed largely by what they write, and need to learn both general academic conventions as well as disciplinary writing requirements in order to be successful in higher education. Teaching Academic Writing is a 'toolkit' designed to help higher education lecturers and tutors teach writing to their students. Containing a range of diverse teaching strategies, the book offers both practical activities to help students develop their writing abilities and guidelines to help lecturers and tutors think in more depth about the assessment tasks they set and the feedback they give to students. The authors explore a wide variety of text types, from essays and reflective diaries to research projects and laboratory reports. The book draws on recent research in the fields of academic literacy, second language learning, and linguistics. It is grounded in recent developments such as the increasing diversity of the student body, the use of the Internet, electronic tuition, and issues related to distance learning in an era of increasing globalisation. Written by experienced teachers of writing, language, and linguistics, Teaching Academic Writing will be of interest to anyone involved in teaching academic writing in higher education.

Download or read book University and School Collaborations During a Pandemic written by Fernando M. Reimers and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Based on twenty case studies of universities worldwide, and on a survey administered to leaders in 101 universities, this open access book shows that, amidst the significant challenges caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, universities found ways to engage with schools to support them in sustaining educational opportunity. In doing so, they generated considerable innovation, which reinforced the integration of the research and outreach functions of the university. The evidence suggests that universities are indeed open systems, in interaction with their environment, able to discover changes that can influence them and to change in response to those changes. They are also able, in the success of their efforts to mitigate the educational impact of the pandemic, to create better futures, as the result of the innovations they can generate. This challenges the view of universities as "ivory towers" being isolated from the surrounding environment and detached from local problems. As they reached out to schools, universities not only generated clear and valuable innovations to sustain educational opportunity and to improve it, this process also contributed to transform internal university processes in ways that enhanced their own ability to deliver on the third mission of outreach

Download or read book World Anthropologies written by Gustavo Lins Ribeiro and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-07-13 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since its inception, anthropology's authority has been based on the assumption that it is a unified discipline emanating from the West. In an age of heightened globalization, anthropologists have failed to discuss consistently the current status of their practice and its mutations across the globe. World Anthropologies is the first book to provoke this conversation from various regions of the world in order to assess the diversity of relations between regional or national anthropologies and a contested, power-laden Western discourse. Can a planetary anthropology cope with both the 'provincial cosmopolitanism' of alternative anthropologies and the 'metropolitan provincialism' of hegemonic schools? How might the resulting 'world anthropologies' challenge the current panorama in which certain allegedly national anthropological traditions have more paradigmatic weight - and hence more power - than others? Critically examining the international dissemination of anthropology within and across national power fields, contributors address these questions and provide the outline for a veritable world anthropologies project.

Download or read book Teaching Tech Together written by Greg Wilson and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2019-10-08 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hundreds of grassroots groups have sprung up around the world to teach programming, web design, robotics, and other skills outside traditional classrooms. These groups exist so that people don't have to learn these things on their own, but ironically, their founders and instructors are often teaching themselves how to teach. There's a better way. This book presents evidence-based practices that will help you create and deliver lessons that work and build a teaching community around them. Topics include the differences between different kinds of learners, diagnosing and correcting misunderstandings, teaching as a performance art, what motivates and demotivates adult learners, how to be a good ally, fostering a healthy community, getting the word out, and building alliances with like-minded groups. The book includes over a hundred exercises that can be done individually or in groups, over 350 references, and a glossary to help you navigate educational jargon.

Download or read book Literacy Technology and Diversity written by Jim Cummins and published by Allyn & Bacon. This book was released on 2007 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An invaluable resource for both practicing and pre-service teachers, this long-awaited book offers a fresh and much-needed point of view of how to "rethink" literacy and technology in today's diverse classrooms. Authored by some of the most respected researchers in the field today, Literacy, Technology, and Diversity reflects on the idea that great expectations are achievable through educational projects that foster academic growth, with classroom diversity and technology as catalysts for deeper learning, and that a narrow focus ongrade expectations yields superficial results. Arguing today's learning principles need to incorporate the core values of community learning, critical pedagogy, multilingualism, anti-racist education, high academic standards, and technological fluency, Cummins, Sayers and Brown provide a thought-provoking introduction into these learning principles that will inspire the life-long learning of students. Take a peek inside... Provides examples of projects, backed by research-based theories for their effective adaptation to help both pre-service and practicing teachers become more independent and creative in the ways they use technology. Gives useful suggestions on how to effectively integrate literacy and technology into the classroom. Presents Portraits (Case studies) of collaborative projects promoting literacy learning and often involving technology on such topics as: Cognition, Assessment, Community of Learning, and Tools and Resources in Section II (Chapters 5-9). Contains an appendix of short vignettes of exemplary projects that promote learning of standards-based expectations for academic achievement. Includes a complimentary CD-ROM of additional resources for teachers as well as updated portraits on exemplary projects.

Download or read book Academic Writing in a Global Context written by Theresa M. Lillis and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 203 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Academic Writing in a Global Context addresses the issue of the pressure on academics worldwide to produce their work in English in scholarly publishing, and why the growth of the use of academic English matters. Drawing on an eight year 'text-ethnographic' study of the experiences of fifty scholars working in Europe, this book discusses these questions at both a macro and micro level – through discussions of knowledge evaluation systems on all levels, and analysis of the progress of a text towards publication. In addition to this, case studies of individual scholars in their local institutions and countries are used to illustrate experiences of using English in the academic world. Academic Writing in a Global Context examines the impact of the growing dominance of English on academic writing for publication globally. The authors explore the ways in which the global status attributed to English is impacting on the lives and practices of multilingual scholars working in contexts where English is not the official language of communication and throws into relief the politics surrounding academic publishing. This book will be of interest to postgraduates and professionals in the fields of World Englishes, language and globalization and English Language Teaching.

Download or read book English as an Additional Language in Research Publication and Communication written by Sally Burgess and published by Peter Lang. This book was released on 2008 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book brings together a collection of selected empirical studies by researchers and English for Academic Purposes professionals working with scholars who use English as an additional language and who face barriers to publication when communicating the results of their research in the international context. The contributions have their origins in papers and workshops presented at the conference «Publishing and Presenting Research Internationally: Issues for Speakers of English as an Additional Language» (PRISEAL), which took place at the University of La Laguna (Spain) from 11 to 13 January 2007. The various issues which are addressed in this volume are grouped into three main themes: 1. Descriptive studies of linguistic and rhetorical features of written and spoken academic genres. 2. Contrastive studies of academic discourse with a focus on rhetorical preferences of members of scientific communities across cultures, disciplines and genres. 3. Studies which evaluate English for Academic Purposes courses and materials in terms of how successfully they develop the scholar's ability to communicate more effectively in English.
